Published 1 week ago
Description
The Abbott And Costello Show presents “Playing the Piano with Janet Blair,” originally broadcast on January 27, 1944. In this NBC program sponsored by Camels, Janet Blair joins Bud Abbott and Lou Costello, with Connie Haines, announcer Ken Niles, and Freddie Rich and his orchestra.
When Abbott and Costello are enlisted to entertain at a party, Lou’s assignment at the piano calls for a little musical preparation. Janet Blair chairs the entertainment committee as the duo navigate lessons, cues, and the comic complications of a live performance, including their “Do Re Mi” routine.
The Abbott And Costello Show presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned/mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
